Some pest control methods actually result in more insects.
The result of such actions is the following: plants are damaged, pests are not defeated, and the fate of the harvest is in question.
The ancient and, as some gardeners call it, "barbaric" method is gradually being forgotten. But some summer residents still use it.
The essence comes down to burning the bark of trees with fire. This is done in order to destroy hiding pests.
However, amateur gardeners do everything wrong in 90% of cases and only damage trees. Most pests survive and quickly restore their population.
Over time, their number increases, so the method is ineffective and dangerous from both a gardening and fire safety point of view.
Therefore, agronomists advise hobbyists to use any insecticide, which works much better than burning the bark with a torch.
